Abstract
As a promising switching paradigm, Optical Burst Switch (OBS) was proposed for optical networks showing more efficient and shorter delay than traditional circuit switching, and it is more feasible than optical packet switching. In OBS, burst assembly is one of the critical technologies, and will significantly affect the performance of networks. In this paper, we focus on the study of burst assembly mechanism, and propose a new burst assembly algorithm, which reduces the self-similarity of IP traffic, enhances the data burst utilization and avoids the bandwidth contention due to sending burst data synchronously at different ingress nodes.
